Your chocolates.

Uh, mama, may I borrow your glasses?

Yes, darling.

Thank you.

Why, ducky,

what are you doing?

Oh, I was just nodding

to someone, Mrs. Bromley.

Bromley:
oh.

Heh heh heh. Opus 11.

Man:

your program, Sir.

Pavel:
thank you.

Ah, those steps.

Every year, there seem

to be more of them.

[Conductor tapping baton]

Here, mama.

Oh, thank you,

darling.

[Music begins]

[Different musical piece playing]

[Music ends]

It was heavenly,

wasn't it?

Intermission, ducky--

That's the best part.

Come on.

Ah, les sylphides!

Zofya:
I could see it

a hundred times!

Shall we go

to the bar?

Oh, no, darling. You

take your sister with you.

Janina, go with

your brother.

Janika?

Don't worry, Stephen.

I won't intrude.

Oh, please, Janika!

Uncle?

Stephen, when i

was a young man,

I came for

the ballerinas.

Later on, I came

for the music.

Now,

i come to sit.

Rush to your temptation, my boy.

I couldn't even manage the steps.

[Giggling]

Well, excuse me.

Thank you.

Stephen:

how do you do?

How do you do?

We saw you in the box.

Enjoying

the ballet?

Delightful ballet!

Simply delightful.

Pure, sugar-Coated

culture.

Uh...the watch.

Does your mother

like it?

She adores it.

I saw her with you.

She looks so young

and lovely.

Thank you.

If I may return the compliment for her,

I'm sure she'd say the same of you.

Bromley:
yes, you do

look well tonight, ducky.

Of course, you'd have looked

better if you'd worn my foxes.

Silver

foxes, Count--

A token of appreciation

from dear lady wormsey.

Of course, you know

the wormseys, Count--

Wormsey hall,

wormsey-On-Hill?

No, I haven't had

the pleasure.

I decorated their London

house. It was a sensation.

Got me more jobs than

anything I've ever done.

Sounds charming.

Yes.

Have you seen

much of Warsaw?

No, only

the antique shops.

[Buzzer sounding]

I think we'd better start

back, Mrs. Bromley.

Uh, yes.

It was so nice having this

little chat with you, Count.

Oh, by the way,

If your family or friends

have anything to sell--

Oh! Not that i

mean you're broke--

But just stuff you're

tired of looking at,

I'll pay just as good

a price as anyone.

Oh, here.

Here's my card.

You can call me

at the hotel europa.

We'll be there

until wednesday.

Uh, come along,

ducky.

It's been so nice,

Count Orvid.

Pity you aren't

staying longer.

Yes, it is.

I don't like to ask on

such short acquaintance,

But there's

so little time.

Will you have supper

with me after the ballet?

Well, I'd like to

very much, but...

I'm afraid I can't.

You have another

engagement?

No, but I still have to make an

inventory of today's purchases.

I wanted
